2. You have a massless spring of force constant 64 N/m, but it is Woul apply 16 N of force to it before it begins to stretch. You attach a 12 kg mass to one end of the spring. The other end is fixed in place above the mass (e.g. it is clamped to the room's ceiling). A second mass of 1.0 kg is connected to the bottom of this first mass via a thin string of negligible mass. The system is initially in equilibrium, but then the string connecting the smaller mass suddenly snaps. 2.1 What is the initial acceleration of the spring-mass system? 2.2. What is the amplitude of oscillation for this system? 2.3 What would be the period of oscillation for this system? 2.4 Determine the maximum value of the kinetic energy of the mass still connected to the spring. Assume negligible damping.
